-
What firmware version? Can it be obtained with AT+VER=?
it cannot as the serial interface doesn’t seem to respond. -

How often does the problem happen? Every time

How can we replicate the problem?
I plug in the RAK to a USB port on my Raspberry pi 4. It powers on and appears as /dev/ttyACM0 my user is in the dialout group which has read and write permission to the device in question and I have rebooted it several times in this configuration as well as I have attempted to unplug the usb cable to cycle power. No battery is connected, the device is configured and shows up as a neighbor on my other nodes. when attempting to use the meshtastic CLI I consistently get timeouts and the device mounts /media/username/RAK4361 as a drive. I assume this indicates its booting into DFU mode. I have been able to connect to the device with BLE on my phone and have setup all the basics, node name, mode Router-Client and of course my region US. -
Provide source code if custom firmware is used or link to example if RAKwireless example code is used.
meshtastic --port /dev/ttyACM0
